miter saw cuts your fingers are wayyy too close
@@TravisKlein1 far enough for me to keep them safe👍
@@CasualDIY except when it's not up to you and the saw decides to jerk the wood in on a random occasion that you clearly didn't expect
By the way, awesome builds and I love your videos keep them coming!
@@TravisKlein1 A brick can fall on my head when walking on the street. In this case it's thin mdf no grain, good blade on the saw. The risk of that is minimal. If it was dense oak or ash then I would approach the cut differently👍 However everyone needs to follow their way of working so they feel confident and secure.
I had a smile while watching this video. After owning a Rage5S table saw for a few years I have not noticed the t-tracks on top of the fence. Thank you for pointing that out Tomasz. Keep up the quality content. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
Hehe thanks mate 👍
Ha. Same here
Excellent solution, particularly using the 'hidden in plain sight' t-track! Again, thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching 👍
Excellent work, Tomasz! 😃
I'm definitely going to make a few of those!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Worth making mate 👍
Be good my friend
couldnt leave without jotting a beautiful video and a good thought
Good video. I would even move the fence board even further into the blade or add another one. The trailing teeth of the blade are rising up and have a tendency to lift the board.
True, good point 👍
Great safety addition to the Rage5 saw.👏
Yep and it will help me greatly I ripping some long boards I got👍😁
Absolutely awesome video
Thank you kindly
Love your vids, keep them coming
Thank you very much
1st class job👍
Thanks mate 👍
Good job 👍
Thank you
Hi Tomasz. Great safety video, those T tracks are an extremely good feature on the top edge of the rip fence. They're ideal for that featherboard set up. Tony
Yes mate plus you can easily attach some jigs to it as well
Nice job that.
Thanks 👍
Nice setup ..
Thank you 👍
Is your beard getting more magnificent in more recent videos? I'm rather jealous.
Lol maybe through pure laziness and me not trimming it from time to time 😅
@@CasualDIY Hello Tomasz,
It looks like you're using it instead of a proper face mask when cutting MDF on your mitre saw. That hose from the top isn't doing anything to remove the very dangerous and carcinogenic MDF dust cloud. It's as much use as an ashtray on a motorbike!
I find it strange that you manually direct a hose to the tip of your pillar drill which isn't making hardly any dust at all, and you made sure your router table on the Rage 5 has great dust collection, but you damned near stick your face and nose into the cloud of MDF dust being blasted everywhere from your mitre saw. Please, at least wear a decent quality face mask that filters out MDF dust.
I've only recently discovered your channel and I'm thoroughly enjoying working my way through your vids, So, as a new subscriber I want you to continue making them. I'm enjoying your no fluff and bullshit style as opposed to some of the big US youtubers that take up half the video explaing who their sponsor of the week is. So again, please start using a decent mask.
There're a lot of videos on YT about mitre saw dust collection, this is one of the simplest and best I've seen and am going to be making a version for my cheapy Titan sliding one; czcams.com/video/mkzCUF02s2g/video.html.
Love your vids for the Rage 5S, Do you have a pattern- drawing for any of the attachments you make please?
Thank you. Sorry no patterns for these
@@CasualDIY No problem, managed to make now
As I have the rage 5 I will be doing this. Thanks Thomaz.
I notice you have the same evolution mitre saw as me. Could you recommend a good replacement blade? Is it the same fitting as the table saw blade? Thanks
Same bore hole 25.4mm
I have done some testing and if you are not bothered with reducing rings then I would go Freud or Trend. If you don't want to worry about reducing rings then go for Saxton blades. They are very good and they got a range with 25.4mm bore hole.
@@CasualDIY thank you Thomasz. I will try to find the vid you did before I watched regarding blades.
Excellent!
One question, although it is to do with the RAGE 5-S not the featherboard. While watching this video, I notice your Riving knife is flashing with the blade. Some says higher and some says as you are. Will you mind doing a video on some safety tips in the future my friend? And a BIG Thank you...
The riving knife should be at such height as the top of the blade. But it will be different if you are using the top blade cover or when you are using a sled. But the general idea is that it should be covering whole blade height.
@@CasualDIY Thank you for your advice! Cheers!!!
Some people might try that once, but then find it to be overkill and too time consuming. A proper push stick does everything the fence feather stick does, and doesn't require adjusting. Anyways, keep coming up with new ideas.
I find these especially helpful with long boards when they tend to wonder a bit. This set up makes sure they stay right on the point. But yes these are not for every scenario. But with 20 pine boards to rip in half, all 2.4m long this will be perfect.
Thanks very much Tomasz. As a hobbyist with not yet enough tablesaw experience to be 99% confident, I'll choose every available safety/assist option rather than save a bit of time. Cheers.
@@CasualDIY Yes I agree 100%. Push stick can help when the boards are small enough but for long boards these are such a help to keep it straight and safe.
@@theswime945 exactly 👍
@@ashokmoghe8035 that's very true
"Best Feather board set up for a table saw". Arrogant statements won't get you viewers.
Well it's best for me and I'm making and looking at it from my perspective so yes in my eyes the that statement is accurate. May not be for you as your needs may be different.
@sbtoolman12123 Well, it seems that an "arrogant" statement brought you here, so, yes, "arrogant" statements get viewers. 😄
Wow. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed today? Chill out man. Life’s too short to be angry all the time.
Love the spacer idea when you were cutting the board.
@@Mr2at thanks, had some plastic spacers I bought in Wickes ( whole large pack different sizes for few £££ ). So worth it 👍
